This guide is not going to be updated for the 2.0 release

All projectiles now behave like arrows. Multiple projectiles emitted at exactly the same time can no longer hit the same target..

This is the end of everything this guide stands for.

I do not know how incinerate will be afterwards, I imagine it will still be very strong if it gets some buffs and stuff, but that is not what this guide is about. This guide is about the shotgun power of Incinerate. The lightning warp, the LMP/GMP, the damage mitigation. They are all build around incinerate being that close range caster. Without those things, incinerate needs to be played different, maybe as a longer range caster or...?

And then there are the changes to EB. This means we won't be able to run AA as it is right now. And who knows what else will get changed.

No matter how you will play it afterwards, after the next patch, this guide will be dead. I don't see the use of refitting the current guide into something new.


This guide has been loads of fun, both in building, playing, tweaking, and writing. I'm sad to say that this is the end - even though it might have been ended somewhere in 1.3 for me - but it might be for the better maybe.


Path of Exile is entering 2.0. So it's only natural that all from 1.0 is becoming obsolete. I am not angry or anything, just a bit sad that I have to say goodbye to a friend who brought me a lot of pleasure in this game.

And somewhere, I'm also excited. Because there will be a new game to be explored. And who knows what gem I might find in that game ;)

I'll leave the guide up, it's still viable for 1.3 as it is now. I'm still open to questions about the guide, but I prefer them in this topic!



"I would definitely recommend this to people who want a strong build on a budget."

"I can tell you it is the MOST fun I have had playing this game."

"YOU TANK ALL THE MOBS WHILE MARAUDERS RIP AND CRY LIKE GIRLS"

What is this build about?
I'm going to keep it short and simple. Low costs, insane soloing capabilities, fun build.
With low costs, I mean, the most vital endgame gearpieces can be purchased all together for a couple of chaos. Everything else are rares you will find among the way.
With insane soloing capabilities, I mean it can solo almost any combination of map mods on almost any map.
And with fun, I mean... Well fun!

Caught your interest? Read on.

A Brief introduction to Incinerate
As the wiki says: "Launches a torrent of fire from your hand. The longer you repeatedly cast the spell from the same location, the larger and more damaging the flames become."

You stand still and fire at everything that is foolish enough to stand near you. The longer you fire, without any interruption, the more damage you will deal. And not just a bit, you can get up to 300% more damage(!). It is that 400% damage that makes this skill this incredibly strong. However, there is a catch. Moving, casting another skill, or getting frozen/stunned will cancel your stream of fire, and reset the more damage to 0%.

Now before we go into the details, let's look at a few basics of incinerate. Besides being a spell, incinerate is also considered a projectile, and will benefit from projectile buffs. Projectile speed will therefore increase the range of incinerate, while projectile damage, just like spell and fire damage, will increase the base damage Incinerate deals.
Incinerate is also piercing, meaning, chain and fork won't be triggered with incinerate, since those only work on targets that don't get pierced.
Furthermore, Incinerate has 0% crit chance. Even though it is possible to get crits of with incinerate. Not worth our time though.

LMP vs GMP?
Since incinerate is considered a projectile, both Lesser Multiple Projectiles and Greater Multiple Projeciles will work with incinerate. The biggest difference between the two lie in the amount of projectiles, and the overall damage reduced.

Where LMP adds only two projectiles, GMP adds 4 total. LMP reduces the damage by 30% though, where GMP cuts the damage by half. In other words, in theory LMP fires 3 projectiles at 70%, while GMP adds 5 projectiles at 50%. Though, since Incinerate spreads, we won't always hit all enemies with all the beams. The projectiles added by GMP are an addition to those in LMP. Meaning, the angle of every line shot are the same in both GMP and LMP. This means that GMP covers more ground than LMP, but the density of the flames are the same.

Before we continue to the next part, there is something we need to know about incinerate. at first, incinerate seems like a straight line. However, when we hit the 3rd stage, we can see that the line starts to wave. Projectiles aren't shot straight forward, but also to the sides of the line, increasing the width of incinerate. Our incinerate will be roughly 3:1 length:width. With this in mind, we get something like this below.


The green dot is the player.
The green lines is where LMP deals more damage.
The yellow lines is where GMP deals more damage.

As you can see, GMP-users will deal more damage to those to the side of the incinerate, and close to the player. LMP-users will deal more damage to everything at a slight/far distance. So which is better? Honestly, it's all up to what you prefer. GMP for bigger clear and high single target damage, or LMP for bigger and more concentrated damage.

Why is Lightning warp interesting to us?
At first, Lightning warp might seem only sufficient as transportation. Link Lightning Warp to Reduced Duration and Faster Casting, and you will almost teleport instantly from point A to B. Though, there is something else that makes Lightning Warp invaluable to us.

Remember the problems with Incinerate?
- being stunned can end Incinerate
- being frozen can end Incinerate
- casting another skill will end Incinerate
- moving will end Incinerate

The top three can be solved. For stunned, we get either the dodge/avoid stun nodes or Unweavering Stance. For Frozen, something like a dream fragments, or high cold resistance(what we will be using), not being able to cast another skill should also not be a biggie. Only moving... Whenever everything dies, you have to move to the next location, and start over with channeling Incinerate. Especially in bigger groups, this could be dangerous. This is were Lightning Warp comes to save us.
Link Lightning Warp with a Reduced Duration, a Faster Casting and a Cast when damage taken. Every time you take a bit of damage, you teleport to another spot. This might seem random, and incredibly annoying, but once you figure out how Lightning Warp works, this suddenly becomes actually very helpful.

Lightning Warp acts as both a protector, and aggressive attacker, all thanks to a little trait Lighting Warp has: "Minimum Range: Lightning Warp has a minimum range, inside which a teleport won't occur unless it is blocked by a terrain obstacle. An attempt to teleport within the minimum range will default to the nearest allowable teleport distance."


The green dot in the middle is the player.
The green radius around the player is the minimum range of Lightning warp.
Red dots are enemies.

As you can see up here, Whenever a monster stands in melee range and attacks you, you will teleport a short distance behind the target, still in range for incinerate to attack your target, but too far for your target to hit you with his melee attack. When you get hit by anything outside the minimum distance Lightning warp has, it actually teleports you in front of the target. And thanks to GMP we get 2.5x the damage when we stand next to an enemy. This way, we can keep kiting melee enemies, while we keep chasing those ranged damage dealers.

Oh and just for the record, Casting LW with CwDT will not stop your incinerate.

How do we protect ourselves?
Even though Lightning Warp is very useful for neglecting damage, there are a few things we need to be careful for. Namely Elemental Reflect, Lightning Thorns and Hard physical hitters.

Elemental Reflect is the easiest to solve. We use Arctic Armour. This will completely negate all possible forms from reflect. To understand why, we need to understand how Reflect works. Once you deal damage, to take some damage yourself. But not just any damage, you take damage, based on the type of damage you dealt. Meaning, if you deal Physical damage, you take Physical. If you do lightning damage, you take lightning damage, and if you deal fire damage, you take fire damage. The second thing we need to understand is, that monsters deal reflect individually. So attack three monsters at once, and you get damage from three different sources. Since it all happens at the same time, you will not notice a thing, but this will help us greatly.

Arctic Armour has a few neat effects. The effect we are interested in is "-x Fire Damage taken when hit". Meaning, a flat amount of fire damage is simply neglected: you need to take higher hits to actually take damage. And since Incinerate does not deal a lot of damage, but just attacks incredibly fast, we are immune to reflect.

Lightning Thorns is a different problem. It deals a flat amount of damage for each projectile and each time you attack an enemy affected with Lightning Thorns, resulting in major damage. With the removal of the convenient Elemental Adaptation(2+ to all max resistances), carrying a Topaz Flask will be mandatory once we hit higher levels. Pop a potion as soon as you see a pack with blackguards. Due to the damage output, we should kill the pack within seconds, and get the charges back. If one of the guards is inflicted with LT, it should deal only little damage.

Hard physical hitters will always stay something we'd like to avoid. Doesn't mean we can not do anything about it. Enduring cry and Immortal Call linked to a lvl 1 Cast when damage Taken, will negate a large portion of the damage you take.
Frost wall blocks off chaining chargers, and prevent ranged damage, and for those really in need of more defences, arctic breath will slow everything that hits you, leaving behind that nasty frozen ground.

So what about the core gear? It's cheap right?
Right. There are two uniques that are both mandatory. The Infernal Mantle and Saffell's Frame. I would also highly recommend Apep's Rage for the flat chaos damage, but we can definitely do without it.

At first, the Infernal Mantle might raise a few questions though. This item seems contradictory to the build: when we hit low mana, we take 100% extra elemental damage, and since we are using Mind over Matter(more about this later), we will take a good portion of mana damage every now and then, leaving us seemingly vulnerable to elemental damage. Though, we still run with the infernal mantle. Simply because of one reason: this item allows us to kill monsters with high fire resistances.
The key to this success is the damage conversion. 25% of our fire damage gets converted to chaos damage. Why is this necessary? Fire resistant mobs, or elemental resistant mobs are far from uncommon. I rarely run any map without at least either of mobs with resistances in it. Since all our damage comes from fire, losing 75% of our damage can hurt us by a lot. We deal less damage, meaning we leech less life, meaning, we can die more easily. That 25% chaos damage basically acts as a fire penetration, only with the benefits of bypassing shields.
The 1+ to fire gems is also nice, and the spell damage/fire damage is something I'd like to see on my equips as well. Not to mention the 450+ ES, which is a big help towards our mana pool.
Best thing about this armor is that it's only worth a few chaos. The unwanted occult vestment child has finally found it's use.

Saffell's Frame is in the build again, after being away for the entire 1.1 patch. It is the reason why we can tank Dominus, Temple Piety, Shock and Horror, Lightning Thorns, and all those other high elemental bosses. Raising our resistances to 79% means, we only take 21% of the damage they deal. It's a great help when you get to low mana. Even if you get hit by that lightning storm, it gets either blocked, or heavily mitigated. Saffell's Frame used to be expensive(1.5Ex expensive), but has somehow dropped hard in price. currently, the cheapest are only 1 chaos.

Please note: It's only worth using Saffells, if your other gear will max your res. If you don't reach the 79/79/79 resistances, you are better off using another shield, with HP/ES/Armour and resistances!

Now I mentioned Apep's Rage as well. Added in the 1.2.0 patch, Apep's brings more chaos damage, on top of the conversion we have. The damage will be cut by 30% due to incinerate, but it's still a decent amount of damage, since incinerate just attacks so damn fast. This is one of the best end game weapons we can wish for our build. It's decently pricey as well, selling for roughly 1,5ex on rampage.

As for the rest of the gear, here is a list of things you want to look out for.
Weapon: Spell damage, Fire damage, Cast Speed, Resistances, Mana regen.
Rings: Life, fire damage, resistances, Mana regen, Mana.
Amulet: Life, fire damage, spell damage, cast speed, resistances, Mana regen, Mana.
Helm: Armor, ES, Life, Resistances, Mana.
Boots: Armor, ES, Life, Resistances, Mana, movement speed is nice to have but not necessary.
Gloves: Armor, ES, Life, Resistances, Mana.
Belt: Armor, ES, Life, Resistances.



To emphasize this build does not need good rares, here is the gear I've done the 1.2 video's with. I paid at most 3 chaos for an item - with the exception of Apep's. Your aim is to get max resistances(79/79/79), and high life/mana. And that's even obtainable with mediocre gear.

As for flasks..



There are the ones I use now. I plan on removing my burning flask for a granite with the warding prefix, making me immune to those annoying hex fonts, and other curse casters. As for the rest of the pots, having a bleeding flask is mandatory, especially with corrupting blood popping up every now and then. You will survive the 20 stacks in almost all cases, if you can keep attacking. But if that's the last monster around, those stacks will most likely kill you if you don't get rid of them. I get a topaz flask for bosses like Piety, Shock & Horror and Dominus.

Seems cheap. Hey wait! Don't we need to buy gems?
Just a couple. We need three Cast with Damage Taken, costing around 6 chaos to get all of them. A Greater Multiple Projectile can be bought for 1 chaos. Other gem you want to look out for is reduced duration.

While we are on the subject of gems. These are all the gems we need, socketed and well.



Let's start with the top.
Cast when Damage Taken #1. Linked to a Lightning warp, Faster Casting and Elemental Weakness/Enfeeble. This teleports us around whenever we get hit. Faster Casting/A quality lightning warp helps immensely. On top of that, whenever we teleport around, we also curse the enemy, lowering their resistances or their damage. I recommend going with enfeeble once you hit at least 2.5K tooltip damage. At that point, the damage should jabe come to a point where hitting them with elemental weakness won't matter much.

Keep in mind that this CwDT stays at lvl 1, meaning, Lightning warp and your curse should not be higher then lvl 31!

Aura. I recommend both Clarity and Herald of Ice. The flat damage from Herald of Ice is just too good to pass up. And clarity, well it's needed to uphold our Arctic Armour.

Incinerate. Our bread and butter. Linked to Lesser/Greater Multiple Projectiles(we had this discussion before), Life Leech, and, if we only have a 4 link, either spell echo(faster charging, huge damage increase)or mana leech(more defensive option, recommended for HC players). The first slot is the one you didn't pick, and those who obtained a 6Link, should get added chaos/fire pen/added cold(in that order of importance)depending on the colors they have.

Lightning Warp linked to Reduced Duration and Faster casting lets us access easy traveling. We don't care about it's damage, but if you find a weapon with 1/2+ to lightning gems, you might as well put the gems in it.

Cast when Damage Taken #2, with Molten Shell, Immortal Call and Increased Duration. We level up this one to the max. This CwDT doesn't only protect us against melee attacks, since we get a decent amount of elemental damage nodes, the blast from Molten shell will also hurt a LOT. If you want, swap out Increased Duration for Increase AoE/Conc effect for a bigger AoE/damage boost.

Cast when Damage Taken #3, linked to Frost Wall, Enduring cry and the 4th slot for Arctic Armour. You can link or leave AA unlinked. It shouldn't matter too much since Arctic Armour will be too high for this Cast when Damage Taken to be triggered. We level up this CwDT to lvl 5, so it won't appear at the same time as the lightning warp. If you have an unset ring for Arctic Armour, replace AA with Increased duration for those extra annoying frost walls!

Got it, So... got something to say about the tree?
Many things actually. Let's look at our all-over-the-fing-place-tree!



A few important nodes:
Eldritch Battery: Turns Energy Shield into Mana, allowing us to have a huge mana pool. This doesn't only gives us a lot of mana regen, in combination with Mind over Matter, it will also give us a lot of survivability!
Mind over Matter: Basically, this is 30% less damage, as long as we have mana. Due to our high mana pool, mana regen, Mana leech and Battle Rouse our mana is usually full.
Battle Rouse: 3% of the damage taken, will be restored to mana. This helps tremendously in sustaining our mana.
Practical Application/Heart of Oak: Getting chain stuns will cripple us bad. These two nodes will give us 55% chance of evading stun while casting Plus an additional 30% dodge overall, resulting in a 68.5% chance to evade stuns. Even in vulnerability maps, this will keep us save from chain stuns.
Inner Force: Increases the mana regen from clarity and the damage reduction from Arctic Armor. It's nice to have them if you can sustain it.

Other nodes cover life and Life regen, Mana and Mana regen and Fire and Elemental damage, Projectile speed and Projectile damage for the obvious reasons.

And for those who want to go far with this build.. I usually tell people to add points in the places they need, for everything after 85. But if you really don't know where to put points in, here's an example for a 120p build.

As for the bandit Rewards.



And here's a leveling tree for those wondering where to put points in first!



For those, who started a witch, here's the leveling guide for the witch, with her final tree.



Aight, got everything noted. Now, how do we play as an incinerator?
I'll divide this two sections: early levels, and during end game content.

Early levels, Incinerate can be used from lvl 10 and onwards. Until then, play with whatever skill you like. I just went with Spectral Throw, since I got it early enough. You can start using incinerate from here on, but it's recommended to wait until you hit lvl 19, since at that level, you will have both Faster projectiles(lvl 12)and Lesser multiple Projectiles(lvl 19). Even though we don't need LMP for our build, it's nice to use it until we get Greater Multiple Projectiles.
From here on, just stand still, and let the monster walk up to you. I recommend having at least a normal lightning warp(lvl 24) ready as well, linked to a reduced duration gem, so you can actually start playing with Arctic Armour. Just Warp from spot to spot. Since you are standing still, you should be able to uphold AA.

Please note: The Scion does not get incinerate from the quest. If you don't have the gem, just level up a witch, templar or shadower to 10, and kill brutus, it will be available to them. TY Ninaran for pointing this out

When you hit 31, link GMP to your Incinerate. Don't worry about life Leech, the effects are barely noticeable early on. Potions are key, so make sure you have upgraded potions at all times.
Life Leech will get important once you head into act 3 Cruel. By that time, your incinerate should be strong enough to leech decent amounts of life back.

The CwDTs can be socketed as soon as you want, but will really shine when you hit 60+ and got most of the life nodes.

End game, requires a slightly different approach to things, for this reason. You will be teleported around quite often. And that is good, all you need to do is stand still, and blast fire at everything. The teleport will always bring you closer, or a little away from the biggest threat.
If you are dealing with rares, you really want to kill first(necromancers for example), just hold your mouse on the enemy, and just manually cast lightning warp, every time you get teleported away, by any of the minions around him. Your manual teleport should bring you in point blank range, allowing you do deal a little burst, before you get teleported again.
In case of big mob packs, with high physical damagers, you want to stay at a distance, and just fire away, as they get near you. If you get teleported in the group, by archers for example, just pop a granite flask and fire, fire and fire. If you panic, and try to teleport out of the huge pack, you will most likely die. So keep firing, and leeching life back. The combination of teleportation, arctic breath, immortal call, MoM, Arctic Armour, granite flask and your life leech, is incredibly hard to take down. I often come out of fights I thought I'd never make, with barely a scratch on me.

Sounds cool! So how does this build look like end game?

Wait... I was wondering...
Whether it's by post, youtube comment, pm, or even ingame stalks, I usually don't mind answering questions(though ingame has become quite busy lately :x). So Ask away!

Enjoy this build, and let me know how it turned out for you!

23/12/2013 With the recent buffs to Incinerate, this build is stronger than ever. Added the last few paragraphs so I can proudly say that this guide is now Finished :)
20/12/2013 Added a leveling Tree, updated some information, added a few new paragraphs. Almost done, just want to fully test a few more things before I finalize this build!
15/12/2013 Please note: This is a Work in Progress!
As I am writing this, I am still messing around with the right gems combinations. Though, I already archived a few amazing feats(including face tanking Piety Temple/Soling Beefed up Shock n Horror) I still feel I am not there yet. Therefore, I will keep this guide short. For now :)

This looks like a fun build, I'm going to try it out. What perks do you choose from the bandits?

Yay, I made it to mapping!
Grats! For mapping in general, I would like to redirect you to this topic. Lyralei has done a great job explaining everything you need to know about mapping in there. It's a long read, but worth your time.

In this section, I will tell you how we handle the mods, and how we handle the maps :)

So, what mods will we be running?
Any.
Not kidding here. We can run any mod, even though some mods will be harder than other mods.
To keep things organized, I'll use different coloring to distinguish hard mods from the easier ones.

Green mods are easy mods, and should pose no difficulty
Orange mods are possible, but might require your attention
Red mods are hard, and should be avoided by starting incinerators.

Here's a list with the mods(Thanks people of this page):



So what about the maps?
We will be able to run any map. Although, some bosses are easier to kill then others.
Again, I will use coding to distinguish hard maps from easy ones. Coloring is per tier though, a orange/red map doesn't mean it's impossible, it just means it's the harder map among others from it's tier. I recommend starters/HC players to skip on the red maps, or at least on the bosses of those maps if they don't want to die.

Green maps Easy maps, shouldn't pose any difficulty
Orange maps Pay attention, these maps could pose resistance
Red maps These are the hardest maps from this tier. You might want to avoid these maps.




























07/02/2014 - Another Work in Progress, going to add the mapping guide to this post!
21/02/2014 - Finished the mapping section as well.
08/09/2014 - Updated this section as well for the 1.2 release

I am just about to roll a Scion and try this build out; Videos look very impressive. Fun!

I'll check back here every so often to let others know how the leveling process is.

-WAR

Is that build viable on Nemesis?

can you make a little leveling guide ? this videos looks like amazin fun. want to play this :O

@TheSwitch: If you exchange the infernal mantle with the Cload of Defiance, it most likely is. The tree will look a little bit different as well then, Probably go down the marauder side, picking up his 1,5 Life regen node. Have to theorize a bit how to do that.

Leveling guide is up ameinecke :)

Also added a little video for your personal amusement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_Vi9VtHKkg

Enjoy!

And with the release of my awesome shock n horror kill, this build is now completed!

Guys, enjoy!

Seems neat, might try it with some changes. :P
Small typo i think

Thanks fixed :)

And just curious, what changes?
